HMIC records (Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary )

HiDoes anyone know if there is anything out there to find information on people who served as Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary.I have recently been given a photo with a relative of mine wearing a uniform and his hat has HMIC on it. The photo was taken by a photographer in Deal, Kent.Any help would be appreciatedThanks

Hi JanetThe photo was taken around the 1880's. At the bottom of the pedestal where his hat is sitting on top of is H or K Franklin & Son, Photo DEAL written. There is a raised what looks like a bunch of grapes half way up and then a clock near the top which has 0 at the top then 2, 4 6 and 8 on it. The big hand is on the 0 and the little one on the 2 - my husband thinks it may relate to the year the photo was taken perhaps 1882??

I havent scanned the photo in yet but if it would help I will try to get one to you.

If you can find any information out that would be great. I can find no information relating to either Arthur George Newman in the picture or his son Thomas George Newman who was supposed to be born in Belvedere Kent. A very long ongoing brickwall.

Hi Not managed to trace any census records, birth or deaths for Arthur George Newman. Not managed to find any censusesfor Thomas George Newman other than 1911. Couldn't even find him on the 1901 census a year before his marriage to Phoebe in 1902.

This is not related to your or Denise's post but instead about George Frederick West (1849-1914). I'm sorry to contact you this way but I've been trying to get hold of you quite urgently - please would you kindly message me when you see this? Many thanks.
